Lg g4 why doesn't the notification led color work for incoming text notifications?

[scard]

I have different colors set for my contacts notification led. When I get a phone call the correct colored light works but when I get a text from the same person the color is the default green for everyone. Can I set the color to indicate who the text notification is from? Why does it work only for phone calls?

It could be that level of customization is being overridden by the SMS app you are using.
Which SMS app are you using?

 

[scard]

I don't know what SMS is. Texting is using Message +

 

[scard]

Message+

So that's it? No help?

 

[ManiacJoe]

SMS = Short Message Service (texting from phone to phone)
Message+, That is the app by Verizon, right?
What are the notification options in Message+ ?

Yes Message+ came with the verizon lgg4 phone. Under settings there is one option under notifications, a checkbox "Display message notifications in status bar". There is a checkbox under "Heads Up Notification" for "Display heads up notifications in status bar". Both are checked. Thank you for responding.

The LED setting in your contacts list probably only works for the phone calls.
I am using Textra for my SMS messages. All texts from all contacts get the same LED color as set in the text app settings, which is different from the color in my contacts settings.

OK thank you very much. I appreciate it.
